Pheko Motaung Poems

Like now you're wiser
With bitter knowledge and
Romantic dreams
At your loving best you
...

There was a rainstorm, oh Mabel
(My heart has lifted you
To the upper echelons of my soul
My spirit lets you roam free
...

Learn the rules
And unlearn the rules
Poetry is mood/ heart/ soul
It is spirit and mind and...agony
...

The mad man
In his darkest hour
Searches feverishly for
The cannibalised man's uneaten skull
...

The beloved
Tell her every year in August
She lives on in the
Dust that covered our turbulent
...
